Abstract
Sheep dog trials were established in the 1870’s with the first recorded trial involving participants from more than one country taking place in Bala in 1873. At roughly the same time local sheep dog societies were established in the North West of England and Wales to promote the activity of trialling. Societies now exist not only in the UK and Ireland but also in Australia, New Zealand and the United States and sheep dog trials have become significant international events that have delivered positive economic impacts for the localities in which they take place.
